BH options- wide bh that can be weighted to 300gr
« on: October 13, 2017, 05:41:00 PM »
i'm looking for some wide BH's (greater than 1 1/8") that can be weighted up to 300gr.

i have a 70# recurve that shoots 710gr arrows at 190fps so i thought i might shoot a wider BH for maximum effect. i can get grizzlies up to 300gr but i'm having trouble finding a wider head that can be made to be 300gr.

think zwickey delta or wider.

I love the 200gr VPA two blade.  Very tough head. And they make a 300gr  1-1/4".

i have a couple of glue on tree sharks weighted to  250gr for a different setup but i thought they don't make the glue on tree sharks anymore? the screw in tree sharks aren't heavy enough.

I bought some glue on tree sharks 2 weeks ago from Simmons.  I was surprised to see that the glue on one's were still available.
Good luck, shoot straight and God bless,

I turn a 225 grain field point down to a 170 grain Insert with a drill and grinder to get my 125 heads like zwickey deltas up to 300 grains.

For a wide (37-38mm) cheap broadhead, ACE super express 200 gr glue on is the way to go.

Ace Super Express is the way to go. Add a 100 grain steel insert and you will be at 300 gr.
